I would say that 90% of the people, such as myself, that are using ac vent gauge pods do not have ac nor heat. All of my A/C and Heater components have been removed.

most people are making there on, as I posted earlier i made mine out of sheet metal using a hole saw, then sprayed it with a texture coating. It was extremely easy. They do sell them made out of CNC billet though and they are really nice, just more expensive.

That's a stack, and it doesn't plug into your ecu, it has it's own analog inputs for sensors as far as I know.

Pegasus - Stack ST8100 Custom Pre-Configured Dash Kit

ST8100

No good videos of one though.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdDKL1tyI8Q

The cheapest one seems to be the MyChron MXL Strada at 1000 bucks and some change.

Pegasus - MyChron MXL Strada High Performance Digital Dash

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aBOACF4IRM

the racepak IQ3 is plug and play, you can add extra sensors to it for about 250 a pop. But out of the box it's ready to go, it measures your speed by gps (comes with gps sensor.)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4kBoK_1xX8

Racepak Data Systems - Professional Motorsports Data Acquisition Systems



This is how my dash should look once I am done buying everything....

Here is the Defi Super Sports Cluster, with integrated boost gauge, I think this would be an ideal set up but fuck if anyone would know how to install it much less I am afraid to even know it's price tag.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsI2ZgRmvFg

and there ya have it.

Remember this is without Sensors. AIMs look really good for their price but then you're looking at 700-1500 in sensors...

Same deal with the racepak... it's like 1500 for the unit. But it's 250 a sensor, which seems ideal since it's like 250 for a gauge of the same function. boost, water temp, oil p, oil t, voltage, etc.

LOL!!!!! where are you seeing that??? there is a piece of blue painters tape over the VIN, but no "duck" or duct tape on anything ...LOL nothing wrong with it either. but thanks for the laugh! maybe you are misconstruing what the textured spray looks like. it is sprayed with bedliner.

The stock cluster is still there, just hollowed out (except for the working fuel gauge), so its blocked off pretty well i think.
